Apply to be a Teaching Assistant

The first priority for employment at the Children's Center is given to qualified students with work-study grants. Regular pay students are hired when necessary. It is recommended that applicants are able to commit approximately 10-25 hours per week to this position. It is also preferred to schedule employees for a minimum of two hours per shift to help ensure continuity in the classrooms. 

Interested students may apply online. After completing the online application, the student will be contacted to schedule an interview. Before the student can begin working, they must complete an I-9 and additional payroll forms, a staff health report (current physical and TB Test are required), and complete the mandatory training sessions online and in-person.
